Scarlett Johansson & Miles Teller Join Adam Driver in Ad Adstra Director’s Paper Tiger Cast
Scarlett Johansson and Miles Teller have joined the cast of Paper Tiger.
Paper Tiger is a new film going into production next month in New Jersey that comes from director James Gray, who is known for making 2016’s The Lost City of Z and 2019’s Ad Astra, among other titles.
Along with Teller and Johansson, the movie will also star Adam Driver. Character details are being kept under wraps at this time.
What is Paper Tiger about?
“Paper Tiger is a tense and gritty story, two brothers pursue the American Dream —only to become entangled in a scheme that turns out to be too good to be true,” the synopsis reads. “As they try to navigate their way through an ever-more dangerous world of corruption and violence, they find themselves and their family brutally terrorized by the Russian ‘Mafiya.’ Their bond begins to fray, and betrayal—once utterly unthinkable—now becomes all too possible.”
RT Features’ Rodrigo Teixeira and AK Productions’ Anthony Katagas serve as producers on the movie alongside Raffaella Leone, Gary Farkas, Marco Perego, Carlo Salem, and Andrea Bucko. Executive producers include Lee Broda, Jeff Rice, Riccardo Maddalosso, and Emille Salveson.
Johansson, known for playing Black Widow in the MCU, will soon be seen playing a character named Zora Bennett in Jurassic World Rebirth, which opens in United States theaters this coming July. She’s also starring in Wes Anderson’s next movie, The Phoenician Scheme, which arrives later this month.
Teller is set to play John Branca in the upcoming Michael Jackson biopic, titled Michael. He’ll also soon be seen starring alongside Elizabeth Olsen, Callum Turner, and Da’Vine Joy Randolph in David Freyne’s Eternity.
In addition to The Lost City of Z and Ad Astra, Gray previously made 1994’s Little Odessa, 2000’s The Yards, 2007’s WE Own the Night, 2008’s Two Lovers, 2013’s The Immigrant, and 2022’s Armageddon Time.
A release date for Paper Tiger has not yet been announced.
